HC Deb 05 April 1900 vol 81 c1272
MR. WILLIAM REDMOND

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Government will consider the advisability of subsidising and establishing during the coming season a boat service between Foynes and Kilrush for the convenience of tourists who may desire to visit those districts.

THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. ATKINSON,) (for Mr. G. W. BALFOUR) Londonderry, N.

There are no funds available under the Railways (Ireland) Act, 1896, for the purpose of subsidising and establishing a boat service between the places mentioned in the question.
